The best of Christmas 2009

We've really enjoyed being here in CA for Christmas. Here are some of the highlights:

The Discovery Museum

Christmas Eve happens to be my mother-in-law's birthday. Her birthday dinner request was curry. So, Matt and I did a combined effort for the main dishes. I made chicken coconut curry. He made chana masala (a chickpea dish). They both turned out DELICIOUSLY (if I do say so myself). My sister-in-law brought some basamati rice and naan that rounded out the dinner perfectly.

Unfortunately, my camera battery died so I don't have more pics. of the birthday celebration or the Christmas pageant we put on afterward.

Christmas morning Dean was up by 7. I had to totally DRAG everyone else (ok, mainly just Matt and uncle Neil) out of bed so we could have Christmas morning together as a family. I stalled Dean by giving him his milk in the kitchen while we waited.

Even Walt got in on the present action.

On Christmas Night Matt's sister's fam came over to join in the festivities. They have three sons. One is 6 yrs. One is about 4 months older than Dean. Another is two weeks younger than Walt. It was fun.

About Me

My husband and I have been married for since 2003. We had three boys and one girl while living in the Lone Star State. In June 2016 I gave birth to a baby girl here in UT. We have loved being in UT closer to family. I have taught piano for about 20 years now, and am super excited to add Let's Play Music and Sound Beginnings to my studio.
